In a large pot, heat over medium-high heat. Add your choice of ground beef or Italian sausage, onion, and minced garlic. Cook until the meat is browned and the onion is softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in the tomato paste, crushed tomatoes, and broth. Bring to a boil for about 3-5 minutes.

Break the lasagna noodles into smaller pieces and add them to the pot. Lower the heat and simmer until al dente, around 10-12 minutes.

Ladle the soup into bowls and top with your favorite cheese and fresh herbs.
